Sudden Winds,

...makes a good point for me.

On most runways of significant length you can do an improved climb T/O.

The V1 spread may be anything up to 30kts.

On these runways you can reject long past a normal speeds V1 and be assured of a theoretical stop on the runway.

Playing with fire?

I endorse what John Tullamarine says though...the call on the day is going to depend on a number of issues and it may prove to be a day on which you wished you'd never got out of bed.
